Burst the gate! ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
In the 1/4 final of Seoul, top seed Rudd lost 2-6 to Japan's Ryo Nishioka 2-6, 6-3, 2-6, and missed the final four.
Despite being a finalist in the year-end finals, Ruud loses this time and his world ranking will drop by one place next week, while Nadal returns to No.2, with the top 2 players in Spain (Alcaras). This is the first time since Agassi and Sampras in 2000 that the same national player has occupied the TOP2!
Nishioka has been in good form recently, reaching the Washington finals, this time picking out the world's second player and achieving the most important results!
